Chapter 215: New Cultivation Technique
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
To someone as extraordinarily steady as Lu Yuan, a cultivation technique and divine ability with full defense was more reassuringly life-saving than anything else.
What made Lu Yuan so extraordinarily steady?
Was it because every time he did something, he would think it through?
Or did he never do anything risky?
Those were only part of it.
Nevertheless, anyone who could do any of the above could already be considered steady.
However, Lu Yuan was an ultimate steady person. He felt that in order to be truly steady, other than being able to think deeply and not do things that he was not confident in, improving his ability to resist risks was also a very crucial part.
The so-called ability to resist risks referred to the ability to protect oneself to a certain extent in the event of an unexpected force.
For example, if one were about to be hit on the head by a meteorite while walking, one had to have the ability to run out of the range of the meteorite or withstand the damage from the meteorite.
At the very least, one would be able to protect their life.
Although the probability of a person being hit by a meteorite was very low, it was definitely not non-existent.
Lu Yuan chose to cultivate a cultivation technique with outstanding defensive power. That was none other than the Sword Control Technique with astonishing escape speed.
It was all for the purpose of being able to deal with unexpected danger.
If one couldn’t consider everything, including the one in ten thousand or one in a million situations, how could one be considered steady?
Despite having learned so many divine abilities and cultivation techniques, Lu Yuan had never been confused about his own direction of development.
From the beginning to the end, he only had one goal in his cultivation, and that was to save his life.
He would cultivate any life-saving cultivation techniques and divine abilities.
With that thought in mind, Lu Yuan directly walked toward the center of the upper three levels.
When Lu Yuan walked to the central area, he quickly felt a wave of spiritual energy begin to wander around his body.
The spiritual power did not have any malicious intent, as if it was an inherent program.
It felt like he was being scanned by a machine.
Knowing the selection mechanism of the techniques and divine abilities, Lu Yuan consciously activated his Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique as he approached the central area.
When the surrounding array detected Lu Yuan’s Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique and his strong obsession with saving his life, it instantly activated.
And because Lu Yuan had displayed the earth attribute of golden core, the array thought that Lu Yuan had a one-patterned way of the heavens golden core condensed from the way of the heavens earth spiritual root.
In the end, the two cultivation techniques that appeared in front of Lu Yuan were both earth-attribute Core Formation Stage cultivation techniques.
“Cultivation technique: Earth Illusionary Manual.”
“Effect: After cultivating this cultivation technique, one can cast many special illusions…”
“Cultivation technique: Mountain River Scripture.”
“Effect: After cultivating this cultivation technique, one can borrow the power of mountains and rivers to condense the body of a mountain god…”
The Earth Illusionary Manual and the Mountain River Scripture had very obvious characteristics.
The former was a cultivation technique that specialized in array formations.
After cultivating, one could use many illusion arrays to confuse the enemy.
The effect of the Mountain River Scripture was also very obvious. It was a cultivation technique that borrowed the power of mountains and rivers to achieve strength with reduced effort.
Lu Yuan did not hesitate to choose between the two cultivation techniques.
What a joke, what illusion? Without the help of special eyes that help me copy opponents’ skills with one look, why would he learn illusions?
Lu Yuan’s understanding of illusions was that they were techniques and divine abilities that were specially used to torture noobs and deal with weaker enemies.
Illusions could allow one to fight against a hundred as long as they were not broken.
However, illusions had an awkward position in Lu Yuan’s skill set.
That was because Lu Yuan did not need the kind of skill that could allow him to steadily tease noobs.
Instead, he needed an ability that could somewhat protect himself when he faced a strong enemy.
The characteristics of illusions were obviously unable to satisfy that point.
Not to mention, for some talented people, illusions could not affect them at all.
Why would he learn illusion techniques?
And if Lu Yuan did not learn illusion techniques, then the first cultivation technique would undoubtedly be eliminated as a choice by Lu Yuan.
The only option he had left was the Mountain River Scripture.
Thinking of that, Lu Yuan directly stretched out his hand.
The ball of light that wrapped the Mountain River Scripture quickly flew in front of Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan’s fingertip touched the ball of light.
A large amount of memories related to the Mountain River Scripture instantly surged into Lu Yuan’s mind.
“Ding! You have learned the cultivation technique, Mountain River Scripture, through the method of imparting strength. Mountain River Scripture cultivation technique proficiency +1.”
“Ding! Detected that the compatibility of the cultivation techniques Mountain River Scripture, Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique, and Mountain River Array Diagram, has reached 75%. Do you want to fuse these three cultivation techniques?”
Seeing the system notification, Lu Yuan had nothing to hesitate about.
Fusion!
“Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the new cultivation technique… MMountain River Mystical Black Tortoise Diagram.”
“Cultivation technique: Mountain River Mystical Black Tortoise Diagram.”
“Effect: When this cultivation technique is cultivated to great success, you can obtain defense and strength comparable to the mystical black tortoise divine beast and summon the mystical black tortoise Dharma Idol.”
“Remarks: mystical black tortoise, one of the Four Divine Beasts, is trustworthy.”
Seeing the system’s description of the Mountain River Mystical Black Tortoise Diagram, Lu Yuan did not know what to say for a moment..
